Dunedin, FL-- Modular spectroscopy and optical sensing company Ocean Optics, Inc. has acquired the assets of Sandhouse Design, LLC, a designer and manufacturer of modular mid-infrared spectrometers, LEDs, light sources and other photonics products.

Sandhouse Design, LLC, based in Dunedin, FL, has developed over the past four years a novel line of high-powered LED light sources designed for research and spectroscopic applications. In addition, Sandhouse offers small scanning infrared spectrometers in wavelength ranges from 900 to 8,000 nm. Sandhouse products have been widely accepted in biotechnology, process control and industrial applications.

Ocean Optics will manufacture the new product line out of its ISO9001:2008-certified manufacturing facility in Winter Park, FL, and handle sales and support via the company’s regional sales offices in the Americas, Europe and Asia. Ocean Optics will support existing Sandhouse customers immediately.
